Hello,

I created meta term fields for a custom post and after that, fields in a custom taxonomy of the custom post with MB Term Meta plugin. Everything was fine with my custom post fields until I activate MB Meta Term. Since then, values disapered on post edit page... Labels are still here but values gone. I check database, they still there. If I update my post, they been erased.

I used Meta Box Group plugin too.

Could you help me ?

Hello,

I've created a test using your code and here is the video: http://recordit.co/nGs41cchuS. It seems to work for me. Am I missing anything?

Hello,

Weird... I have an old Meta Box Group version (1.1.5). Could It be that? I would not like to bye a new one to update if it not that...
I have the last version of Meta Term plugin and last version of WordPress.

Otherwise I could not figure out where is the problem :/

Thank you

That's it! There is a function in Meta Term Files wish testing the version of Meta Group. If an old version, the storage is block! Why doing that??? I ve been blocked for hours with that...
```
<?php
// Backward compatible with Meta Box Group extension < 1.2.7 when Meta Box 1.12 switch to use storage.
        $old_group = false;
        if ( ! function_exists( 'is_plugin_active' ) ) {
            include_once( ABSPATH . 'wp-admin/includes/plugin.php' );
        }
        if ( is_plugin_active( 'meta-box-group/meta-box-group.php' ) ) {
            $group = get_plugin_data( WP_PLUGIN_DIR . '/meta-box-group/meta-box-group.php' );

        if ( version_compare( $group['Version'], '1.2.7' ) < 0 ) {
            $old_group = true;
        }
    } ?>
```

Hi,

We actually don't block any feature. The code you see it the code for backward compatibility. Back in the history, a year ago (Meta Box 4.12), we created an abstraction layer for storage. This layer allows us to interact with many storage in WP easier, such as term meta, user meta, settings and custom table. Without it, we had to created many filters just for saving and getting the values.

Since then, we have updated all the extensions to use this feature, including Group and Term Meta. I'd suggest you update the group extension to the latest version 1.2.16. What you're having is 1.1.5, which behind 18 versions. And Meta Box core plugin is now 4.15, 3 minor versions have been released.

Update: I found a quick and dirty fix for MB Term Meta that makes it works with old version of Group. Please update to version 1.2.3.
